With more than four decades of experience in the design and manufacture of engineered recreation and amusement product systems, ADG is proud to add Alpine Products to its portfolio of companies.
Alpine Products is North America's only manufacturer of mountain coasters. "Incorporating innovative and proprietary ride safety systems while providing an exhilarating and exciting guest experience the Alpine Products Supercoaster is an ideal addition to our product mix," said Ken Ellis, President and CEO of ADG. "Combining leading edge coaster system technology with the strength and stability of ADG's engineering and manufacturing base makes this acquisition an ideal fit for our company," said Ellis.
"With its long history of consistently delivering aquatics, recreation, and major design/build waterpark projects on time and on budget, we are convinced that becoming a part of the ADG family of companies is key to continuing our successful growth," stated Stig Albertsson founder of Alpine Products.
Alpine Products developed and manufactured the Alpine Supercoaster, which incorporates many unique safety systems including the patent-pending collision avoidance system.
